MY AIRBAG INDICATOR LIGHT CAME ON ALMOST IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWING PURCHASE. I TOOK IT TO BE FIXED BY INFINITI SERVICE DEPARTMENT. AFTER PICKING UP THE VEHICLE, THE LIGHT CAME BACK ON. THIS CYCLE REPEATED MULTIPLE TIMES. THE 4TH TIME, INFINITI STATED THEY HAVE COMPLETED THE "FLOW CHART" PROVIDED BY THE MANUFACTURER TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM AND HAD TO SPEAK TO ENGINEERS TO TROUBLESHOOT NEXT STEPS. THEY QUOTED ANOTHER PART OF THE AIRBAG SYSTEM TO BE REPLACED. THIS TIME, I REQUESTED A GUARANTEED FIX. THEY DENIED THE REQUEST AND STATED THEY CANNOT GUARANTEE ANYTHING. CLIENT AFFAIRS HAS CONTRIBUTED TOWARD THE COSTS OF SOME OF THE REPAIRS AS GOOD WILL. AT THIS POINT, THIS SAFETY ISSUE SHOULD NO LONGER FALL ON THE CONSUMER AT ALL SINCE INFINITI CANNOT SEEM TO FIX THE ISSUE WITHIN A REASONABLE NUMBER OF ATTEMPTS. THERE IS CURRENTLY A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT AGAINST TAKATA FOR FAULTY AIRBAG SYSTEMS CAUSING HUNDREDS OF INJURIES AND EVEN DEATHS. THERE ARE TONS OF RECALLS, YET THIS VEHICLE IS NOT ON A RECALL LIST. MY EXTENDED WARRANTY, THE LEMON LAW, THE DEALER, AND THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT HAVE ALL DENIED RESPONSIBILITY OF THE SAFETY AIRBAGS. THEY ARE NOW HAVING ME PICK THE VEHICLE UP, UNRESOLVED, DESPITE THE RISK TO MY SAFETY. I AM MOVING FORWARD WITH NEXT STEPS TO FILE SAFETY COMPLAINTS AND PUBLICALLY EXPRESS MY CONCERNS BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT. I WANT MY VEHICLE TO BE CONSIDERED FOR AIRBAG RECALL IMMEDIATELY. I WILL BE HAPPY TO PROVIDE ANY DOCUMENTATION NEEDED UPON REQUEST. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ANY INVESTIGATION INTO THIS AND CONSIDERATION FOR RECALL.

The Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR) listed on the certification label is incorrect, which can allow the vehicle to be overloaded. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 110, "Tire Selection and Rims."

Consequence & remedy

Consequence: An overloaded vehicle can increase the risk of a crash.

Remedy: Dealers will install new labels, free of charge. Additionally, Nissan will mail replacement labels to owners.
